Verse 1 Can you see strength in my eyes? I used to sleep through the night. Then horror they came; There were no lights, no sirens, just guns; It was violent. And I had to run or die.
Verse 2 So much time wasted in tents; Seventeen years inside a fence; I ran from a war, homeless, no school, no future; I’m a ghost, but not finished I will rise!
Pre Chorus Say, ooh, are we all alone? Say, no, I’ll never forget my home.
Chorus Running from the place that I know, I’m running, what direction should I go? I’m running, so tired and so worn; I won’t stop until I’m safe and strong.
Verse 3 (Rap verse) Where I’m running to is running through my mind; Always on the run; Am I running out of time?
Darkness in my way; I pray that the sun will shine. Started from the bottom and that was underlined.
By the place that I’m from; sometime is un-divine; I hear them songs of freedom, and they running through my mind;
Close my eyes; imagine a place next to me; Where I can’t be labeled a refugee. Destiny, oh, somewhere down these dark roads; Yeah, we the lost tribe but we found our souls.
Cold rain, all pain, I left along the way; I fight through the night, just to find a stronger day.
Chorus Running from the place that I know, I’m running, what direction should I go? Keep running, so tired and so worn; I won’t stop until I’m safe and strong.
Bridge Oooo Had to flee the place you love; Oooo Tough as nails when things got rough; Oooo Many fathers told their sons and daughters; Say oooo Don’t stop running ‘till you’re home!
Say oooo, Refugee song. Say oooo, Refugee song. Say oooo, Refugee song. Say oooo, Refugee song.
